Keifei (Long IGF-1 R3) 40mcg

Hi all

Im new to this forum, so excuse my ignorance, would like someone to advise me on the 40mcg marking on the 0.5ml U-100 insulin stick.

i was told to draw up to the 20 unit mark but not 100% sure, Each 2ml multi dose vial contains 0.1 mg/vial so how much will i draw up to?

thanking you in advance

So no one knows?

Hi adamron,

We can help, but you didn't provide all the details.

We also need to know how much "mixing water" you received and what kind you have? For example do you have 1ml or 2ml per vial and is it sterile water, acetic acid solution or bacteriostatic water?

Your vials contain 100mcg of IGF, but why are you planning to inject 40mcg as opposed to a nice round number like 50mcg? Are you planning to store the IGF after reconstitution, because that will make the type of mixing water critically important. Generally 100mcg IGF is injected in a single go as 50mcg per muscle group, 50mcg left and 50mcg right to avoid having to store reconstituted IGF. You really do not want to store IGF unless you have Acetic Acid solution, because it will degrade very quickly and become useless.

IGF is not for beginners due to all the things you need to consider above.

Hi, its 2ml sterile water that is provided for mixing, the reasoning 40mcg was because they say i should start on 40mcg and work my way up?

any feedback?
